Question: Is opportunity self-made or predestined by our personal karma? Is it possible to increase our opportunity through surrender?

Sri Chinmoy: Yes, opportunity can be self-made and opportunity can be predestined, but self-made opportunity does not have abiding life in it, whereas when we get opportunity from the Grace of God, this opportunity has an everlasting life and an ever-illumining capacity. Yes, it is quite possible to increase one’s opportunity through surrender-power.
